On May 28, 2020, the House overwhelmingly passed a bill to loosen key rules for the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP).
The plan would:
- Reduce the percentage of aid money that must be spent on payroll from 75% to 60%
- Extend the window businesses have to use the funds from 8 weeks to six months
- Push back a June 30 deadline to rehire workers
- Extend from two years to five years the time new PPP loans must be paid back if the amount provided does not convert to a grant
- Let companies receiving loan forgiveness defer payroll taxes
The bill is now headed to the Senate.
